Teavana: Ginger Peach Apricot

on 1.23.2010


In general I don't care for ginger flavored tea, however I really like this tea! The multi-fruit blend stands out well against the subtle ginger taste, so it is not overpowering. I would recommend enjoying this tea hot as opposed to iced. Unfortunately it looks like Teavana discontinued this blend, so if you see it in one of their stores be sure to snatch some up!  This is also unfortunate because I didn't like any of their other teas I tried...

The description from Tevana:
A fresh, Summer blend of black tea, apricots and peaches. This delightful tea also has a slight ginger and clove undertone for a more complex, unique flavor.

The verdict:  5 out of 5 teacups

Lupicia Fresh Tea: Strawberry & Vanilla

on 11.22.2009


This is my favorite strawberry flavored tea. The fruity flavor is nicely contrasted with a mild vanilla flavor that is delicious. Though this tea is good hot, I really like it iced. I usually brew a pot for 3 minutes (not too long because you want the flavors to stand out over the green tea flavor), and then put it in the fridge. Remember, if you brew it too long, you can always add water when you pour yourself a cup! I found this tea at my local Nijiya store.

The description from Lupicia Fresh Teas:
Green tea with matcha is flavored with sweet fragrance of strawberry and vanilla.

The verdict:  5 out of 5 teacups

Harney & Sons Tea: Tropical Green

on 11.07.2009


A mix of tropical flavors (but mainly pineapple) in a well-balanced green tea. The leaves for this tea in particular are quite large, which is nice! Available in loose and bag form.

From the Harney & Sons company I also recommend their Caribe tea. I have also tried the following teas, but wouldn't recommend them as highly: Black Apricot, Black Lychee, Black Mango, White Peach.

The verdict: 5 out of 5 teacups
